I would bear in mind the 'next' version of Virtual RC if you are thinking of buying a laptop specifically for that job.

VRC Pro is the next one, new graphics engine, new dynamics and the introduction of off-road!!

not public this year, so its defo worth getting the current one,
but if you are buying something specifically for VRC bear in mind the new version

something with 3d graphics card, not on board graphics.
something like this as a bare minimum, but it isn't up to much games wise http://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/asp/v...=version&page= something with a geforce card should have a bit more poke, like this http://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/asp/v...=version&page=

I would get something with at least an 8xxx series geforce in it.
The bottom one listed above is good. There is also this: http://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/asp/v...=version&page= This has less RAM but a better graphics card - so a compromise. Both should run VRC Pro though. |

Remember guys the Apple laptops under £1400 have the most basic graphics chips possible and won't play games very well

Okay I thought the Mac comments above were a joke.
VRC won't run on a Mac, and 99.99% of all games will not run on a Mac... |
